Officer Garrett Swasey to receive national honor

The U.S. Honor Flag is returning to Colorado for the third time in just the last few months.

The Honor Network will offer for free the entire funeral services for Police OfficerGarrett Swasey.

Additionallytheextensive coordination, planning and Honor Guard team details will be coordinated withnumerous local, state and federal lawenforcement agencies.

“Sadly this will be the third time in less then a year that I’ve had to do this in Colorado. Each time with no hesitation. In fact since 2010 the U.S. Honor Flag has in some way participated in most all Line of Duty Deaths in the State. No one person has attended, spoke or participated in more funerals for police officers and firefighters then myself. It is an exhausting task, but it has to be done. These men and women have made the ultimate sacrifice so that we have all freedoms and liberties of being safe in America. They will not be forgotten, and the United States Honor Flag will forever carry the honor they died for,” said U.S. Honor Flag founder Chris Heisler.
